My husband was a resident of St Joseph Nursing Home. It was terrible. My husband wasn't there very long when he broke a hip because there were no people watching him and he got up and started walking around. Then a little while later he broke another hip; they said he fell out of bed, but that's not true because his bed was like four inches off the ground with a mat beside the bed. Some days they would run out of food. Like one day they didn't have dinner so they brought him breakfast. He hardly ever ate the food because it's terrible. They put him down at the end of the hall because they didn't want to come and take care of him, so they took him far away. They also overmedicated him. A week before he passed, they put him in a room to die, then they called me saying that he only had a week to live so he better go home. My daughter brought him to the ER and we found out he hadn't been eating for days because the food was terrible. It was one thing after another -- it was horrible -- I would not recommend that place. He was in a shared room, and they put a dying man in there with him. They didn't have many activities. They had bingo and there's entertainment, but they hardly have it at all. The staff was fine, but the place itself was run down. It was very poor and it smelled in there; the facility was bad. The price was too high at $6,000 a month.
